YouTube has modified its content filter after complaints it had blocked political and lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) videos. Restricted mode is an optional filter designed to hide content that may be judged unsuitable for children. But many prominent LGBT video-makers said their videos had been targeted.

LGBT thought they were being specifically targeted and picked on by YouTube. As in the same YouTube which recently launched a super flaming pro-LGBT campaign (see Whoops! YouTube's Pro-LGBT Campaign Hilariously Backfires). Rest assured, gays, methinks there was hardly any anti-gay targeting going on.

YouTube said it had identified that its systems "were not working as intended".

Ah, yes, its intended purpose? To filter out mean, scary videos like ours (which follow FCC guidelines). Hence why you should become a Mug Club subscriber ASAP. But I digress...

"We want to clarify that restricted mode should not filter out content belonging to individuals or groups based on certain attributes like gender, gender identity, political viewpoints, race, religion or sexual orientation," it said in a blog post.

It seems YouTube, like many other social media platforms, is more interested in securing a spot for their leftist agenda than upholding silly things like fairness. Plenty of conservative videos - like those of PragerU - are still restricted despite their harmless content. Alas, the squeaky gay gets the oil. Or in this case, unfettered permission to bend YouTubes "objective rules."

Of course, YouTube can do what it pleases with its own platform. We'll just be over here fighting to take back the media...
